Hahaha Hi dear ,

You wanna know about the type of paper I use? Well, actually I do not know the brand or type...
It is a relatively thick type of inking paper: used by people who make postcards etc. through ink with stamps on paper.The paper does not take in the ink so it stays on top of the paper to dry and thus it gives stronger colors.
The surface is as smooth as photo-print paper, but not sticky. I buy it at a hobby shop...

Merry X-mas to you and your family....!

I understand ... very interesting ... and you can fade and draw equally well with pencil?

TheSignmaker In reply to S3m0la [2010-12-27 09:23:02 +0000 UTC]

yes, and because the surface is so smooth you can fade right back to the white of the paper if you want and then smudge again because the graphite does not sink into the paper(this works great on the hair: I make white lines with the electric eraser, then smudge it and then add more white lines in three or four layers. So I get depth in the hair.
When my drawing is ready I do not have to put a finish spray on it, because you cannot smudge the drawing just by going over it with your hand. The graphite sticks very well to the paper. I love to work on this paper! hahaha...but indeed the paper has improved the quality/result of my drawings a lot! So tools are important!
